How AC Milan could line up against Napoli

Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how AC Milan could line up for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Napoli.

AC Milan aim to complete the job in their all-Italian Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday, as they take on Napoli with a one-goal lead from last week's first leg.

Following his side's 1-0 win at San Siro, Stefano Pioli made wholesale changes at the weekend, as all 10 outfield players from Wednesday's game were rested and only goalkeeper Mike Maignan kept his place.

Not only will Pioli revert to a full-strength lineup in Naples, but Milan could be unchanged from last week's clash in the second city, as Sandro Tonali joins first-leg goalscorer Ismael Bennacer in midfield, with Fikayo Tomori and captain Davide Calabria returning in defence.

While Calabria will again be tasked with nullifying the threat of Napoli's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Tomori teams up with old partner Simon Kjaer in hope of keeping Serie A top scorer Victor Osimhen at bay.

Up front for the visitors, Olivier Giroud will seek his seventh goal in the Champions League this season, as Divock Origi is among those who drop to the bench.

Fellow forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who scored nine times in the Rossoneri's 2011-12 campaign, is still injured and was left out of the Rossoneri's Champions League squad in any case.

Having been instrumental in Bennacer's winning goal and also starred in a 4-0 league victory at Stadio Maradona earlier this month, Brahim Diaz returns as part of Giroud's supporting cast; Rafael Leao lines up on the left flank.

AC Milan possible starting lineup: Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Hernandez; Krunic, Tonali; Diaz, Bennacer, Leao; Giroud
